THIS IS THE HOUSE YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!

As you step through the front door, you're welcomed by the soothing coastal charm of a newly decorated and fully updated home located on an 3 over-sized lots in South Venice. Empty lots full of lush tropical growth on either side provide the utmost in seclusion and privacy.

Once inside, you are met with an open-concept living/dining/kitchen area that provides you will ample room for your family. A double reclining couch and two oversized reclining chairs in the living room, along with a 55 -inch big screen TV with cable and Netflix access, offer plenty of comfortable seating and entertainment options. A beautiful 3 door sliding glass door brings the outdoors indoors and provides amazing views of the HEATED pool and lanai area.

There is also parking available for your boat, camper, or both! The gravel parking closest to the street is 20' wide and 32' deep. The back gravel area is 13' wide and 50' feed to the fence.

You'll never want to leave the backyard where palm trees overlook the saltwater heated pool in the fully fenced backyard. There are multiple spots for lounging in the sun or shade along with many seating areas in the screened-in porch area. The fenced backyard is the perfect environment for your "Fur Baby". Feel free to pick your own fresh oranges from out tree!

Master Bedroom: King Bed - Pillow top mattress

Bedroom 2: Queen Bed - Pillow top mattress

Bedroom 3; The "kids room" is over-sized with a Full/Twin Bunk Bed, a huge sofa comfortable enough to sleep on, a desk (printer, scanner, copier), 50" smart TV (Netflix and DVD player). It offers the kids a place to hang out away from the adults.

We are centrally located in South Venice just a short drive to grocery stores, movie theaters, restaurants and beaches. We are less than 1/2 mile from Shamrock Park and 2 miles from the South Venice Ferry - which provides access to the private beach only accessible to residents of South Venice. Other locations within a short driving distance are The Venice Pier, Sharky's on the Pier, Lemon Bay Park, Venice Beach and downtown Venice just to name a few.

Not a beach-goer? Venice has many outstanding options for the avid golfer, including a wide variety of courses and plenty of tee times to fit your schedule. If you are looking for an easy walking path or a long bike trail you can take a casual ride to the beach, long distance road ride, or a ride out in the wilderness. We are located 1/2 mile from the Legacy Trail path. You can also take advantage of Venice's numerous parks, museums, theater, shopping or many other action-packed outdoor experiences.

About Greg Henry

We live on a small farm in Oklahoma. My wife Tracy is a professor at Southwestern Oklahoma State University. We have a cat, two Great Danes and our favorite place on earth is VENICE FLORIDA!

Greg Henry purchased this House in 2018

Why Greg Henry chose South Venice

After renting for years in Venice, we decided to buy our own home and offer it to rent! We wanted a place that was private, and with COMFORTABLE beds, couches, etc. Good internet and a TV worthy of watching the OKC THUNDER on! :) . We wanted a "kid area" for them to view their own movies and games while the adults were watching theirs. We wanted it to be in South Venice (for the private beach) and we wanted it to look and feel like a Florida vacation home. Every guest so far has asked to return! We encourage you to read our reviews!!!!

What makes this House unique

No Neighbors on the North and South sides of the house, access to the ferry to the Private Beach! Lots of parking, (room for a boat or camper), enclosed pool with triple sliding glass doors that open the house up the the pool area! SAFE neighborhood, every convenience we could think of!

Suitability

Pool / Spa

Private HEATED salt-water pool is for the exclusive use of guests staying at the property.

My family travels to Venice a couple times a year. We really enjoyed staying at this house. The house was very clean and had every thing you need to feel right at home. The only draw back was the weather was chilly and the solar blanket for the pool did not heat the pool up enough for us to comfortably swim. Greg did mention that a heater was going to be installed which will be a great addition to this place

. We will definitely want to rent this house again next season especially with the pool heater. We felt right at home and enjoyed our vacation. Making memories!

We adored our time at The Palms on Shamrock!! Greg and Tracy are such wonderful hosts - very attentive and quick to respond to any questions. Their home truly felt like our home. The home was fully equipped - we didn't have to bring a thing. And Tracy and Greg even went so far as to decorate the palm trees with holiday lights and provided a fully decorated Christmas tree -my son loved it!! The location is perfect -in a quiet neighborhood close to the beach, nature park, restaurants, and shops. Just a short drive from lovely downtown with its shops and restaurants. Wish we could have stayed longer!! Sitting on the back lanai is so peaceful - it's perfectly situated for your morning coffee, evening drinks, reading a good book, or just listening to the birds! Tracy and Greg provide a wonderful binder of tips,guides and info for your stay - which was very helpful. Thank You so much Greg and Tracy!!!

Dear Greg and Tracy,

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home - what a great place for a vacation. Breakfast on the lanai overlooking the pool is an amazing way to star the day.

Some of our favorite places and activities were searching for shark teeth on local beaches and the private beach; watching the sunset at Sharkey's on the pier while enjoying dinner and drinks; shopping at the quaint downtown area (even the street renovation didn't distract from this experience); kayaking and paddleboarding at the North Jetty (so much fun).

We cannot wait to return for our third visit to your home.

Thank you again,

Jeff and Penny Rasberry

P.S. Don't forget happy hour at the Daiquiri Deck!!

This is a great house to rent. It is conveniently located near beaches, restaurants, grocery stores and bars. We really enjoyed our stay and had a blast. We went to Venice Beach, Sharky's on the Pier, Siesta Key Beach and took the ferry over to hunt for shark teeth.

The owners are super nice and very accommodating. The house was very clean and stocked with all the necessities, plus much more. Would definitely recommend this house to others and would definitely come back again. Thanks for sharing your house.

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. The first time was in April 2018. It was awesome then, but stunning now! This place literally has it all! Convenience, privacy, beauty! Three wonderful bedrooms, loads of space, awesome lanai with outstanding caged pool. Access to the private S. Venice beach by ferry, beach wagon, umbrellas, chairs, beach towels...there is nothing this place is missing. Better yet, I can bring my fur baby, the fenced yard is safe for fur babies and kids alike. If it rains they have a well stocked game cabinet, bookshelf and free Netflix! Got tweens & teens? They will love the bedroom with the large tv where they can hook up their gaming system. Need to do a little work or print boarding passes, there is a desktop computer, printer & any other office supplies you may need. Shamrock Park is down the street has tennis courts and basketball courts. Don’t take dirty clothes home from vacation or pack light, do your laundry in the oversized washing machine & dryer. This place is so convenient but seems so private. Cook in or eat out, either way the kitchen is well stocked and great restaurants are a few minutes away. The owners, Greg & Tracy are absolutely wonderful and have made this a place we will visit again and again! Thanks for another great vacation!

Owner's Response:

Thank you so much! We so enjoy having you as part of our “shamrock family”! It makes us happy to share the home with wonderful people like you! However, the cleaning lady said if everyone left it as clean as you, she’d be out of a job! 😂�😂�😂�

Nice getaway, friendly owner.

My husband and I rented this home at the last minute to celebrate our anniversary. Initially we were supposed to go to Myrtle beach, but we had to make other arrangements because of hurricane Florence. We chose to visit Florida as we were looking for a beach. Unfortunately we didn't realize we wouldn't be able to enjoy the beaches due to the red tide. However, we did enjoy the rental and the owner Greg was very generous and accommodating. The private pool was especially enjoyable and very relaxing. We loved the home and overall everything was clean and beautifully decorated. We even picked fresh lime right in the back yard, great for drinks and the outdoor grill was perfect. The king size bed was comfortable and the home had everything we needed for our stay. Granted we did not get to enjoy the beach like we had hoped, but the owner did offer us a discount for our next visit. The owner and his wife are very sweet people, they were very helpful and they responded quickly whenever we needed something. We would definitely love to stay again once the red tide is gone. I will recommend this place to friends and family.
